All out for a win in Valencia

Having already achieved their objective of qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League, Real Madrid host Valencia tonight on LaLiga matchday 13 (9:30pm CET). Ancelotti's men face their third consecutive match at the Santiago Bernabéu and will be looking to take all three points to continue their fight for the lead before the break for national team commitments.

In order to win, our team will be looking to continue the good defensive form they have shown so far in LaLiga. Real Madrid are the team which has conceded the fewest goals in the first 12 matchdays with just eight. Only two of those goals have been conceded at the Santiago Bernabéu. "We need to continue with our good momentum and bring more continuity to everything we do," said Ancelotti at the pre-match press conference in Valencia. Vini Jr, Rodrygo and Brahim are all in the Italian coach's squad for the game. All three played a key role in the win over Braga, scoring a goal each. They will be joined by Bellingham, the team's top scorer this season with 13 goals.
